Dear Sid:

I wish you were here. It is so sunny and beautiful in New England now. The trees are still pale green.
This morning I walked down to see your folks. Your mother had been on the qui vive all the forenoon, thinking she heard me coming in the front door. She is looking well. Your father complains of feeling dizzy when he turns around quickly, and says he isn't sure of his legs at all. He is studying the dictionary evening. They had it we were going to sail on the Mauretania, and Eliott Curtis was preparing a letter of introduction to the captain of that boat whom he somehow knows, for you. I told them to let it go the Mauretania as that was better advertising for us! So they felt better, tho' they said conscientiously they had told everyone that. Your mother was anxious to have you come home as soon as possible. They said Ralph was much tickled over your turkey eggs, and had laughed a great deal. He called Pa up last night, and I expect that he & Maude will ring your folks up sometime soon
